Tipping point
Beyond recovery
No turning back
You turned my eyes
Like flint
To know You
To see things
That are yet to come
To behold
Future glory in part
Brighter days still
Ever increasing
Your kingdom now
Your kingdom yet to come

You go before
Every step I take
Walk beside watching
Every move I make
Move within
Deep valleys of despair
Drive away
All my fears
Lift me up
To mountain heights
To see what You see
From heaven above
Send me out
With Your unfailing love
Knowing
Everywhere I go
You are there

Grace
Like a cool breeze
On a hot summers day
Blows across my face
Shelters me
Under the outstretched branches
Of evergreen
Brilliant rays filter through it’s leaves
And dance across my face
I feel your glory all around me
Caught up in wonder
As a child
Captivated
By Your grace

Fully present
Engaged
Alive
In grace
Grace that holds on
Never gives up
Grace that speaks to the weary heart
Be strong
Grace that lifts up the hands that hang down
Steadies the knees that give way
Grace that says to the fearful heart
I am with you
Grace always takes the first step
Bowing down in humility
Under grace
I stand
Once more
In Your presence

Hiding behind apathy
Passivity lacks all empathy
Sympathy nowhere to be found
Arguing every case so logically
Carnally with every step
Life fleshed out selfishly
Egotistically centred
There’s a twist so tragically
Standing outside God eternally

Unconditionally surrender to God
He paid the price sacrificially
To redemptively make known His love
He reigns magnificently
Rules victoriously
Gives life abundantly
Generously fights against poverty
Graciously gave away all He could give
Now to Him belongs all honour and power and praise
To Christ the risen King be glory for all eternity

You placed eternity in my heart
That I might know You
The Infinite One
Without limit
No beginning or end
Transcendent
Immutable
Unchanging
All powerful
All knowing
Everywhere present
Self existent
Uncreated
God
You are God
